Ever since the dastardly, devilish and evil terrorist attacks by fanatical Muslim suicide bombers against America, many people world wide and in the United States have asked the question "WHY?"  Why would the Arab terrorists plan these horrid attacks against  America? 

PRIME MINISTER JEAN CHRETIEN BELIEVES THE TERRORIST ATTACKS ON AMERICA WERE DUE TO AMERICA'S WEALTH 

Canada's lame duck Prime Minister, Jean Chretien shared his belief that the western world’s wealth combined with other nation’s poverty, was a major cause of the terrorist attacks and terrorism in general,  and apparently was a big factor in the September 11th terrorist attack.

Progressive Conservative leader Joe Clark, who will be remembered among other things as the ‘Grand Marshall’ of Calgary’s Gay Pride Parade, seemed to be in agreement with the Prime Minister on the issue. More balanced and intelligent heads prevailed, however, and there were a chorus of writers, pundits and politicians who discounted such talk as ridiculous, among them Stephen Harper, leader of Her Majesty’s Loyal Opposition, whose brain is still free from Ottawa’s ‘politically correct’  disease.  He stated: “Mr. Chretien’s comments… are shameful. What was behind the events of September 11 terrorist attacks are the forces of evil and hatred…His comments are unacceptable, and he should apologize to the United States and to the families of the Canadian victims."         

THE REAL CAUSE OF ARABS HATE FOR AMERICA IS ARAB HATRED FOR ISRAEL

News reports from the Middle East and comments from Arabs who have fled their oppressive homelands and received refuge in the West, invariably lay the blame for their plight at the feet of Israel.  One can sense the hatred when they speak about ‘the Jews’ and their God-given right to live in their own land.

Just mention Jerusalem - Israel’s capital – and Muslims go ballistic! They claim the 3,000 year-old ‘City of David’ belongs to them, even though Jerusalem is not once mentioned in the Quran, but is referred to hundreds of times in the Holy Bible.   And ironically, when most Muslims pray toward Mecca, they turn their backs toward Jerusalem! And you don’t hear of Israel seeking to overthrow Damascus, Jordan, Baghdad, Cairo or Riyadh.

Oh sure, Jews are to blame for the ignorance and incompetence of Arab leaders.  Israel is to blame for the poverty brought upon them by the lavish lifestyles of thousands of dictatorial, parasitic princes and kings, and the ruthless rule of mullahs brainwashed by the teachings of Muhammad, Wahhabi, Khomeini and Osama bin Laden.

The danger is that ‘airhead politicians’, and ‘wing-nut academics’ in some universities, are becoming increasingly anti-Semitic and have joined hands with Islamic Groups, whose goal is to foment hatred and violence against Jews, even in America and Canada.

IT HAPPENED IN CANADA: HAS ANYONE APOLOGIZED?

Canadians ought to be concerned when a visiting former prime minister, who has been invited to speak at a Canadian university, is prevented from doing so because of a protest, organized by Islamic Groups against Israel.

How would we feel if Canada’s former Prime Minister Brian Mulrooney, the late Pierre Trudeau or the ‘retiring’ Jean Chretien, were treated as terribly in any given country, as was the illustrious and intelligent former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Montreal recently?    

Benjamin Netanyahu, former prime minister of Israel, had this to say about the thugs that prevented him from speaking at ‘Montreal’s Concordia University’ September 9, 2002: “That glint of hate, that mad zealotry, is the same that I saw in the eyes of these rioters in Montreal. It is something that, once it begins to infect democratic societies, it spreads, it grows.” This “glint of hate” was the same Mr. Netanyahu had observed in the eyes of anti-Israel terrorists, writes Kevin Michael Grace in ‘The Report’ (Oct. 7, 2002)

Jonathon Kay wrote in the ‘National Post’ (Sept.10, 2002) that he was  “dismayed” that the rioters considered the former Israeli prime minister’s presence an intolerable “provocation.” And the Montreal Gazette’s Fredrick Krantz stated that “not to act decisively” against “the destruction of academic freedom and free speech” would be “a dreadful, and portentous victory – let us call a spade a spade – for fascism."

Lawrence Summers, President of Harvard University, said recently: “Serious and thoughtful people are advocating and taking actions that are anti-Semitic in their effect, if not in their intent.” He was referring to the growing anti - Semitism on US university campuses! At U.C. Berkeley on the first night of Passover, someone threw a cinder block through the glass door of the campus Hillel Center for Jewish students and spray painted the words F--- JEWS on the wall. Jewish students were also assaulted on their way to or from classes.

MUSLIM EXTREMISM: DENMARK HAS HAD ENOUGH

Two well-known authors - American Daniel Pipes and Danish Lars Hedegaard have teamed up to report on the forward thrust of Militant Islam’s ‘agenda for control’ in Western Europe and North America.

Daniel Pipes of  www.DanielPipes.org  is author of ‘Militant Islam Reaches America’ (W.W. Norton). Lars Hedegaard is a regular contributor to two Copenhagen newspapers, Berlingske Tidende and Weekendavisen.

Here in part is one of their recent columns, carried by the Globe and Mail:

“A Muslim organization in Denmark announced a few days ago that a $30,000 bounty would be paid for the murder of several prominent Danish Jews, a threat that garnered wide international notice. Less well known is that this is just one problem associated with Denmark’s approximately 200,000 Muslim immigrants. The key issue is that many of them show little desire to fit into their adopted country. For years, Danes lauded multiculturalism and insisted they had no problem with the Muslim customs – until one day they found that they did. Some major issue.

Living on the dole. Third-World immigrants – most of them Muslims from countries such as Turkey, Somalia, Pakistan, Lebanon and Iraq – constitutes 5% of the population but consume upwards of 40% of the welfare spending.

Engaging in crime. Muslims are only 4% of Denmark’s 5.4 million people but make up a majority of the country’s convicted rapists, an especially combustible issue given that practically all the female victims are non-Muslim. Similar, if lesser, disproportions are found in other crimes.

Importing unacceptable customs. Forced marriages – promising a newborn daughter in Denmark to a male cousin in the home country, then compelling her to marry him, sometimes on pain of death – are one problem. Another is the vocal intent to kill Muslims who convert out of Islam.

Fomenting anti-Semitism. Muslim violence threatens Denmark’s approximately 6,000 Jews, who increasingly depend on police protection. Jewish parents were told by one school principal that she could not guarantee their children’s safety and advised to send them to another institution. Anti-Israel marches have turned into anti-Jewish riots. One organization ‘Hizb-ut-Tahrir, openly calls on Muslims to “kill all Jews…wherever you find them.

Seeking Islamic laws. Muslim leaders openly declare their goal of introducing Islamic law once Denmark’s population grows large enough – a not-that remote prospect. If present trends persist, one sociologist estimates, every third inhabitant of Denmark in forty years will be Muslim."

The Pipes/Hedegaard column also states: “In reality, however, the new government barely addressed the existing problems. Nor did it prevent new ones, such as the death threats against Jews, or a recent Islamic edict calling on Muslims to drive Danes out of the Nørrebro quarter of Copenhagen. Terrorism Violence Sign of Times Bible Prophecy & Bible Faith Healing ~ Holy Bible Sermons ~ World News End Times ~God Jesus The authorities remain indulgent. The military mulls permitting Muslim soldiers in Denmark’s volunteer International Brigade to opt out of actions they don’t agree with – a privilege unique to them. Mohammed Omar Bakri, the self-proclaimed London-based  “eyes, ears and mouth” of Osama bin Laden, won permission to set up a branch of his organization, Al-Muhajiroun.

Contrary to media reports, the real news from Denmark is not flirting with fascism but getting mired in inertia. A government elected specifically to deal with a set of problems has made minimal headway. Its reluctance has potentially profound implications for the West as a whole!"

Daniel Pipes is a respected Arabic expert and has written a number of books on that subject. Unnoticed by most Westerners, Pipes wrote in 1995, referring to militant Islam, “war has been unilaterally declared on Europe and the United States.” The director of the Philadelphia - based Middle Eastt Forum’ was one of the very few Americans to understand the significance of what to many appeared to be no more than isolated cases of violence. Long before September 2001, Pipes publicly warned Americans that militant Islam had gone to war against America. Now Americans listen to him."

He explains what exactly militant Islam is and stresses the large and crucial difference between Islam, the faith, and militant Islam the ideology! He demonstrates that there is no clash of civilizations underway, but a battle for the soul of Islam among Muslims themselves. He shows that militant Islam is not mainly caused by poverty and that its adherents, far from being the dispossessed, tend to include the more talented and Westernized elements. Militant Islam has strikingly much in common with fascism and communism. Significant elements within American Islam, for example seek to replace the Constitution with the Quran."

Commenting on Marianne Meed Ward’s column on “What’s Right” in the Toronto Sun, The Report’s Kevin Michael Grace writes: “Her July 8 column argues that importing people from countries like Pakistan, where honor rape is widespread, is not a problem because ‘there’s a difference between cultural practices that are worth tolerating and those that are aren’t. How to decide? Three words: the Criminal Code. Among other things, it bans anybody raping anybody’. But laws are efficacious only if they codify settled values. There is no pro-rape constituency among Canadians. There is, however, a considerable pro-rape constituency among Pakistanis and other Muslims."

Grace comments on countries that have taken in large numbers of refugees and immigrants: “Rape is against the law in Norway, too. The British news service Ananova reported September 7, 2001, that immigrants make up only 14 % of the population of Oslo, yet “attackers of non-Western origin were described in 65 % of all reported rapes” in the Norwegian capital. “Rachel Paul, from the Center for Gender Equality, told the daily newspaper ‘Dagbadet’ that immigrants needed to be informed about sexual behavior in Norway.” In other words, “FYI, guys; it’s not okay to rape women here."

“France also forbids rape. But French Muslims have made it a sport. James Fulford notes on vdare.com July 23 that the tournante (“take your turn”) is the subject of a French movie, La Squale. The movie, which ‘shocked a nation with its horrific scenes of gang rape’, tells of its ‘code of silence’ in the North African society that has been transplanted to the suburbs of France. One of the female leads in the movie…told the BBC’s Rosie Goldsmith that the movie is totally realistic. ‘Two of my friends’, she explained, ‘have been gang raped. One Turkish girl and one white French girl. The boys jumped on them, one after another. In five minutes it was over but those five minutes have ruined their lives. I am afraid most of the time that it could happen to me.'

“Muslim gang rape has also been transplanted to Australia, where last year 15 Lebanese men were charged with over 300 assaults in one year on white Australian girls aged 13 to 18. And the “code of silence” has been transplanted to Canada. Ms. Ward writes, “If Pakistani immigrants are of the rape-as-justice mindset, they’ll be sorely disappointed by the limits on their behavior in the land of the supposed free."

The question is, “Will our corruption-prone, soft-on-crime, politically correct government have the ‘guts’ to enforce the law, or will our un-elected judges change the law to accommodate the lawbreakers, because of terrorist threats or the fear of being called ‘racist’ or prejudiced’?

POSTAGE STAMPS SHOW ARAB INTENT

In 1965, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Jordan, Yemen and Lebanon issued postage stamps showing a bloody knife in the heart of Israel. Any unbiased researcher would have to say, that hatred among Middle Eastern Arabs and Muslims against Jews and the nation of Israel, is far stronger today that it was in 1965! That is a very scary and solemn fact, especially when you know how Muslim dictators treat minorities and people of other faiths.

History reveals how Muhammad murdered thousands of Jews, and broke his peace treaty called ‘Hadabijjah Pact’ with the Arabian Qurash tribe! Yasser Arafat stated that according to Omar bin Katab and others, Muhammed’s peace treaty was only a ‘Lesser Value Agreement’ because he had agreed to sign the treaty without the words, “Messenger of Allah” after his name! He did not keep his word, and his name has no merit.

Anyone who has read Paul Marshall’s, ‘Their Blood Cries out’ or Nina Shea’s, ‘In the Lion’s Den’ or heard Jewish Barrister Michael Horowitz speaking at the United States Congress on the horrible slavery, brutalizing, and genocide of Sudan’s Black Christians in the south, by the Arab Muslims of the north – between 1 to 2 million murdered during the last 15 years – would not wish Islamic rule on their worst enemy!

In a piece titled ‘Terror in Indonesia’, David Aikman, a senior fellow of the Ethics and Public Policy Center in Washington, D.C. and former foreign correspondent with Time magazine wrote in Charisma (Feb. 2002):

“The new element introduced by the events of September 11 is that the supporters of  “Islamism” – the ideology of Osama bin Laden that seeks to impose a global utopian Islamic theocracy by force – are quite open about declaring a war on non-Muslim religions. “Islamists”, the commonly accepted term for Islamic political radicals, have repeatedly made it clear that they are indeed fighting a religious war and that Christianity in general is one of their targets. Often they lump Christianity and Judaism together as the chief obstacles to Islamic world domination, with a conspiracy-theory view of their chief adversary as “Crusader-Zionists.”

Unfortunately, the religion of Islam can certainly be used to rationalize this world-view. The overall thrust of the Quran is aggressive toward non-Muslims. One Quranic verse directs followers of Islam to “fight against” Christians and Jews. In sura 5:60 we read that Allah has transformed Christians and Jews into “apes and swine” who worship “evil.”

In addition, throughout most of Islamic history, according to the preeminent American scholar of Islam, Bernard Lewis of Princeton University, jihad was overwhelmingly understood by Islamic scholars and theologians in its military sense, though if can mean “struggle” in the inner sense of a Muslim’s wrestling against sin.

It is thus especially worrying when the Web site of the Islamist Laskar Jihad in Indonesia openly advocates Jihad against the Christians of Sulawesi, an Island to the northeast of Java.”

Aikman reports: “One threat of an imminent Laskar Jihad onslaught against 68,000 Christians at the heart of Poso was forestalled when Indonesian President Megawati Sukarnoputri in December ordered several thousand troops into the area to disperse the Islamic warriors. It may well have been an answer to a worldwide concert of prayer.

But Indonesia’s Christians are still under immense threat. More prayer is needed, along with letters to President Bush and members of Congress to pressure the Indonesian government to do even more to protect and rescue their country’s Christians.” And so are all Western interests in Muslim-dominated-countries worldwide, as we saw in the October 13, 2002 massacre bombings in Bali, Indonesia, leaving several hundred dead and hundreds more injured!

For those not following the news, it might be interesting to know about the burning of Churches and the killing of Christians by Muslims in Indonesia, as well as the very recent killings of worshippers in Churches and Christian workers in Pakistan!

EDICT TO KILL JERRY FALWELL REVEALS ISLAMISTS’ TRUE NATURE OF ARROGANCE AND HATRE

It’s as if the ghost of the brutal Ayatolleh Khoemeni, who called for the murder of Salmon Rushdie more than a decade ago had returned, to hear another Iranian Muslim cleric Mohsen Mojtahed call for the murder of the Reverend Doctor Jerry Falwell, who as an educator, theologian and university president, researched the life of the former warrior - prophet and concurred with what history reveals: that Muhammed was “a man of violence”! For that statement, the Shiite cleric has ordered his death.

Why does the World Court remain silent? Why has Idi Amin, the brutal monster - who killed thousands of Christians and deported East Indians -remained sheltered in Saudi Arabia? Why has he not been brought to justice?  Why did the world allow Ayatolleh Khoemeni to terrorize Salmon Rushdie?  And why should Mojtahed be allowed to terrorize Dr. Falwell, a highly respected US citizen and clergyman, simply because he gave an educated response to a legitimate question on a TV Talk Show?

Are we to lose our freedom of speech simply to appease some Middle Eastern fanatics? Never! Must we in North America change our customs, adopt a tribal religion, change our laws and live in a climate of fear because of ‘terrorist threats’ by some weird fanatics? A thousand times NO!!

The ‘Edmonton Journal’ carried the following letter to the Editor, October 15, 2002: “Incitement to kill – Iranian Muslim clerics have called for three American preachers – Franklin Graham, Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell – to be killed, for statements which these men have made against Islam. Will the world community remain silent while these backward, self-righteous, “holier-than-thou” mullahs dictate to the world what people must believe and say?

Freedom Quest International condemns, in the strongest possible terms, the issuing of all fatwas and calls for death for people who express personal convictions and opinions. These include the edicts against Salmon Rushdie, the three men cited above, as well as Kola Boof, the woman condemned to be beheaded by the Islamic court in the U.K. at the request of a Sudanese spiritual leader. Sudanese and Iranian so-called clerics have no right to impose their beliefs on anyone else.

If these so-called Muslim clerics want people to see Islam as a religion of peace, this lunacy of death fatwas must stop. Unless these actions are opposed immediately, religious and political freedom everywhere will be seriously placed at risk. Freedom Quest calls on Muslim leaders everywhere to publicly condemn these fatwas and incitings to kill.”                         - Mel Middleton, Trochu, AB

THE REASON THE UNITED STATES is hated by so many in the Arab world is because they are a nation built on Christian principles, and believe the Word of God, the Holy Bible,  which states emphatically that if one blesses Israel, he will be blest, but if one curses Israel, then he will be cursed! (Gen.12: 3) .. See Bible Prophecy

And because Israel is a beacon of democracy dwelling in the midst of tyrannical dictatorships, naturally America favors them over those who exercise abusive power over the people!  Fearing that democracy will drive them out of their palaces, they spread lies about the USA and Israel to the uneducated masses.

To all who hate Israel Jews Jewish and seek her destruction, the Holy Bible  Scriptures give specific instructions on how to do it! Almighty God states that if you are able to destroy the vast intricate solar system, stopping the functions of all heavenly bodies and measure the ‘ever expanding universe’ and x-ray the innermost core of this planet, then you will be able to destroy His people, Israel!  Please Read – Jeremiah 31: 35-37; Psalms 89: 34-37.

My advice to all Muslims, Jews and Christians, don’t look at the failures and frailties of mere men in whatever religion. Look rather to Jesus Christ - God’s Son - Who came to this sin-cursed earth to save us all from our sins, fears, torments and eternal death!

Allow me say to my Jewish friends, Moses will never save you; to my Muslim friends, Muhammad cannot save you; to my Catholic friends, Mary cannot save you; to my Protestant friends, Church membership and good deeds cannot save you! ONLY JESUS CHRIST has the power and ability to save you, through His death for you on the cross, by the power of the Holy Spirit and through His Holy Word.

And now may the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God the Father and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us all, even until Jesus comes again! Amen and Amen.
